Information to Include in Your Event Post​

Please provide enough information for members to understand the event without having to search elsewhere for basic details.

Your post should include:

• The full name of the event
• The starting and finishing dates
• The venue and location
• The country or region
• Opening and closing times
• Ticket prices or attendance costs
• Registration requirements
• Who the event is intended for
• The main topics or activities
• Exhibitor or speaker information, when available
• Accessibility information
• Contact details
• A direct link to the official event website

You may also include details about nearby accommodation, public transport, parking and other practical information that could help people planning to attend.

How to Format Your Event Title​

Please include the event name, date and location in the thread title.

Dates should be written clearly to avoid confusion between the different date formats used around the world.

For example:

Global Travel Industry Expo — 14–16 September 2026 — London, UK

Avoid using an entirely numerical date such as 09/10/2026, as this may be interpreted differently depending on the reader’s country.

A clear and descriptive title will also make your event easier to find through the forum search and external search engines.
